My city, county and the California Democratic Party have resolved to
ratify the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
If anyone has Republican Party contacts, please let me know so we can go
forward on both fronts.
The Democratic Party is having nationwide platform listening sessions -

This is an opportunity to put ratification on the Convention on the
Rights of Persons with Disabilities in the platform. (Senator Obama has
already pledged.)
And an opportunity to introduce other disability issues.
From the bottom-up, grass roots, in your own voice.
Or, if you'd like, we can develop a statement from People Who which
others can use as a starting point. There's also background information
about US involvement at www.RatifyNow.org
